I am trying to use the execute SQL action for ODBC connection. The system DNS setup is done and tested the connection successfully in ODBC Data Source.

When I trying to test the connection in Execute SQL, it does not success and showing "Error testing ODBC connection".
This is the connection string that I use : "Driver ={Oracle in OraClient19Home1}; Dbq=Name; Uid=User; Pwd=Password;"

I would like to know, is it the right connection string format or not. Appreciate for your kind advise. Thanks.

I found below one (Connect directly) in the connection strings website and it works for me. This is connecting to the Oracle Cloud.

Do you have the Oracle client installed on all WFEs and APP servers?

Cheers,
